A little bit under a year ago, I went hands-on with my first set of true wireless earbuds in the form of the PaMu Slide (you can see that review here). Well, here we are, and the technology parade marches on, which means it’s time for a new version to hit the street, in the form of the PaMu Slide Mini.

What about the kids? I mean, they can tune out the outside world easily enough – which is why bone conduction headphones seem like an interesting option. Enter the myFirst Headphones from Oaxis.
(more…)Well, that was a pretty famous tagline from my youth, and perhaps yours as well. Of course, these days, when we’re talking power, it’s all about how to save it (at home) or how to provided it to your electron-hungy devices. These Solgaard devices might help with the first, but they definitely will improve things for the second.

Sure, a full-blown 5.1 or 7.1 setup would be awesome, but it’s not like you could crank it it up when the kids are in bed. Well, that’s where something like this 20″ Vizio Soundbar comes into play, and I was quite pleasantly surprised once I had it setup and we started using it.

(more…)I’m not an audiophile. I love great sound and I know enough about audio production to be dangerous but I’ve never bought a gold reference CD of Rachmaninoff nor do I rail against the MP3 like Neil Young.
But I now know what I’ve been missing.
(more…)As a father of three, I know kids love headphones. My youngest is currently running around the house with an iPod nano and a pair of cans he found somewhere in my office. The question is whether or not he’s destroying his hearing right now, and I suspect he is.
(more…)eBay has a great deal on our favorite noise-canceling headphones, the Sony WH1000XM3. Given these things are usually $350, the $180 deal on these refurb models is great.
